Regulation, Cybersecurity and Digitalization of Law
Digital transformation and continuous technological progress bring new challenges to the legal environment, requiring innovative approaches and effective regulation. This section focuses on current issues in the field of information technology law, including legal and ethical aspects of artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and data protection regulation, as well as the digitalization of legal relations or services. Contributions will analyze how legal acts respond to the dynamics of the digital environment and explore the possibilities of how law can support the development of technological innovation, while ensuring the protection of fundamental rights, the values of the rule of law and a sufficient level of cybersecurity.

Civil Law Section
Current Challenges and Limits of Civil Law in Connection with the Advent of Artificial Intelligence
The modern era is closely related to the dynamic development of social relations, which appear to be new and unknown in the context of the previous state of development of society. They are being created not only as a result of the dynamics of society itself, the level of scientific and technological knowledge, but also as a result of the modification of value settings. Pursuing the very purpose of the law, there is thus a need to regulate them so that they cannot become an abusable product in the hands of a controlling person. The aim of the chosen topic is to focus on specific actual issues of civil law, to identify the needs for regulation, its current status and perspectives. On the other hand, it creates an opportunity to critically evaluate the negatives that arise from the current state of society and to determine the adequate space and instruments of legal protection. Contributions concerning civil law in its substantive connotations, but also in aspects of procedural law are welcome.
